Fish oil and flax seed oil are good as suppliments to add to your Omega3 levels - I took flax seed oil for a time a while back, simply because the idea of concentrated fish oil is pretty gross. My father used to take fish oil a few years back, and reported bad fishy smelling burps - which is far from ideal.
Flax seed oil has to be converted into Omega3 by your body "Flax seeds contain the omega-3 fatty acid ALA that must be converted to DHA by an enzyme so that the body can incorporate it into cells.".
As for calcium, there are certain vegetables such as Broccoli, and Cauliflower (and many others), nuts such as Almonds, etc, which are high in calcium, I'd suggest you eat more of them rather than take a suppliment
